A court in Guwahati on Monday (March 2, 2026) ordered the de-freezing of the bank account of an accused in the Zubeen Garg death case over "technical lapses", while fixing March 19 for consideration of charge hearing, the special public prosecutor (SPP) in the case said.

The Kamrup Metropolitan District and Sessions Court, which is hearing the case, also rejected a petition by another accused seeking report of the Singapore Police, he said.
